Disappearing Samantha - S2-E27

Corrected entry: Lecturer Osgood Writemeyer (later Dr. Bombay played by Bernard Fox) takes a drink from Samantha while Endora is walking around couch to give drink to Osgood. Osgood takes the drink from Samantha but says "Thank you Endora" instead.

Correction: The person you hear saying, "Oh, thank you, Endora," is Larry Tate, who just picked up a Bloody Mary from Endora's tray of drinks.

Correction: Sam explained that she came back because she forgot her shopping list. She most likely left Tabitha in the car, intending to retrieve the list and then leave again.

Samantha for the Defense - S3-E14

Corrected entry: When the prosecutor calls Darrin as a witness, Samantha says "If only he was ready to rest his." The response is inconsistent. I imagine the prosecutor was scripted to say something like "The prosecution calls Darrin Stevens to the case" seems that there should have been a reference to the "case" for Samantha's line to make sense.

Correction: The line is consistent and makes sense. Darrin jokes that if the jury decided now, they'd convict the DA, to which Samantha says "I'm ready to rest my case" (to those at the table). Then the prosecutor calls Darrin, to which Samantha utters "if only he was ready to rest his."

How Green Was My Grass - S4-E24

Continuity mistake: Before this episode (and after as well) Darrin and Samantha give their address as 1164 Morning Glory Circle, however in this episode, when Darrin slams the door, the '9' in 192 on their address spins around to make 162, hence the angry neighbor at 162 saying that his grass was installed at the Stevens' by mistake.

Samantha: Try to control your temper. Remember, "Peace on earth, goodwill to men" includes witches.

Trivia: The Screen Gems sets of Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie were right next to each other at the studio, and many of the actual sets and props were shared between the two shows. Both shows also shared Dick Albain, the Special Effects expert, who worked on the two shows for quite awhile.

Show generally

Question: In one episode (not sure which one but it was in the Dick York era), Darrin was arguing with Samantha and said something like "Confiding in a woman is like broadcasting by Telstar." What exactly does that mean and what was Telstar?

Answer: Telstar was an early communications satellite system. Darrin, in a particularly sexist manner reflective of this era, is saying that telling a secret to a woman means it is guaranteed to be "broadcasted" to multiple people.

Answer: The Telstar Reference was in Dangerous Diaper Dan when Samantha engages in too much gossip.
